Yeah I enjoy their science stuff.
For my money the best content on NPR is produced by others, and can only be found locally. Most of it occurs on the weekend. Ted Radio Hour is usually good, Radiolab is good, This American Life, Echoes, et al. I discovered Harry Shearer's Le Show on Tallahassee's local station, last time I was up there it still aired at 1 PM on Sundays, but I can't get it where I live now so I just get the podcast.
